ஃப்ளாஷ் கார்டுகள்
What are the two main forms of reproduction?
Asexual and sexual reproduction.
Define asexual reproduction.
Asexual reproduction is a process where an organism creates genetically similar or identical copies of itself without the contribution of genetic material from another organism.
Define sexual reproduction.
Sexual reproduction is a biological process that creates a new organism by combining the genetic material of two organisms, starting with meiosis to produce haploid gametes.
What are gametes?
Gametes are specialized reproductive cells that contain half the number of chromosomes of somatic cells, created by meiosis. Examples are sperm and egg cells.
What is fertilisation?
Fertilisation is the fusion of a sperm cell with an egg cell to form a zygote.
What is a zygote?
A zygote is the fertilized egg cell resulting from the fusion of male and female gametes, which develops into a new organism.
What is the two-fold cost of sexual reproduction?
Only 50% of organisms reproduce, and organisms only pass on 50% of their genes.
Give an example of an organism that reproduces asexually by binary fission.
Bacteria reproduce asexually via binary fission.
Give an example of an organism that reproduces asexually by budding.
Hydras and yeasts reproduce by budding.
What is parthenogenesis?
Parthenogenesis is the growth and development of an embryo or seed without fertilization, occurring naturally in some species like water fleas, aphids, and some reptiles.
What is vegetative reproduction?
Vegetative reproduction is a form of asexual reproduction in plants that does not involve seeds or spores, e.g., runners or tubers.
What are the male and female gametes called in anisogamous species?
Male gametes are called sperm (or microspores), and female gametes are called ova (or megaspores).
What is the difference between anisogamous and isogamous species?
In anisogamous species, gametes differ in size or form (e.g., sperm and egg); in isogamous species, gametes are similar or identical in form.
What is allogamy?
Allogamy is cross-fertilization, where a flower's ovum is fertilized by sperm from pollen of a different plant, often via pollinators or wind.
What is autogamy?
Autogamy is self-fertilization, where a flower's ovum is fertilized by its own pollen.
What is the advantage of sexual reproduction over asexual reproduction?
Sexual reproduction increases genetic diversity, which helps populations survive environmental changes and masks deleterious alleles.
What is the main disadvantage of asexual reproduction?
Asexual reproduction produces genetically identical offspring, reducing genetic diversity and adaptability.
What is the role of meiosis in sexual reproduction?
Meiosis produces haploid gametes (sperm and egg) with half the chromosome number, allowing genetic recombination and variation.
What is the difference between haploid and diploid?
Haploid cells have one set of chromosomes (n), while diploid cells have two sets (2n). Gametes are haploid; zygotes are diploid.
What is conjugation in bacteria?
Conjugation is a process where bacteria exchange genetic material through direct cell-to-cell contact, a form of horizontal gene transfer.
Name a species that reproduces only asexually.
The ant species Mycocepurus smithii is thought to reproduce entirely by asexual means.
What is the main difference between asexual and sexual reproduction in terms of offspring genetics?
Asexual reproduction produces genetically identical offspring (clones), while sexual reproduction produces genetically diverse offspring.
What is a spore?
A spore is a reproductive cell that can develop into a new organism without fusion with another cell, often produced by mitosis in asexual reproduction.
